North Bristol family garden

Low-maintenance, big impact

We designed this lovely garden for a busy family of four, who want a space to play and relax, surrounded by beautiful planting. Fruit trees and bushes are dotted around the garden, to encourage exploration and nibbling - for wildlife and humans. We added three new trees, for year-round interest and habitats for birds. And the ultra-low maintenance planting is designed to look good with minimal effort, while providing year-round interest for people, plus homes and food for insects, animals and birds.

Eco-friendly upgrades…

Permeable paving to reduce rainwater runoff, and allow for pretty planting that supports pollinators

Recycled paving stones and plants, to minimise environmental costs and landfill

Upcycled dipping tank, to provide water for wildlife, and a play opportunity for kids
